We're competing for the best Museum.
Tell your friends to vote for Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum.
No one understands hyper-compression like Marvin Yagoda. His museum is sandwiched between halves of a shopping mall north of Detroit in Farmington Hills, Michigan. Inside he's packed dense masses of historical and modern arcade machines, sideshow wonders, fortune tellers, automatons, and curiosities. Marvin is a 60-something year old pharmacist, and Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum is a hobby that went out of control.
The museum contains items of magic, neon, antiques, posters, airplanes, robots, animation, and all sorts of odd and unusual coin operated games. The coin operated games are the main attraction, and range from the oldest gypsy fortune telling machine of the early 1900's, to the lastest video games. All the games are operational. Admission to Marvin's is FREE.

Marvin's has some of the most amazing items I've ever seen! The musical MONSTER that plays actual instruments with a jukebox type interface is one of my favorites! I can't get enough of this place!

This is by far one of my favorite places to "play" at! No matter how old you really are, you always come out feeling like a kid again. Marvin does a really good job keeping up with all of the newest games, and he is just so funny and friendly every time I stop in!
